Vulnerability Overview

The is-human plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Remote Code Execution in all versions up to, and including, 1.4.2 via the /plugins/is-human/engine.php file. This is due to the plugin accepting user-supplied input passed to eval(). This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to execute code on the server.
